net: introduce helper sendpage_ok() in include/linux/net.h
The original problem was from nvme-over-tcp code, who mistakenly uses kernel_sendpage() to send pages allocated by __get_free_pages() without __GFP_COMP flag. Such pages don't have refcount (page_count is 0) on tail pages, sending them by kernel_sendpage() may trigger a kernel panic from a corrupted kernel heap, because these pages are incorrectly freed in network stack as page_count 0 pages. This patch introduces a helper sendpage_ok(), it returns true if the checking page, - is not slab page: PageSlab(page) is false. - has page refcount: page_count(page) is not zero All drivers who want to send page to remote end by kernel_sendpage() may use this helper to check whether the page is OK. If the helper does not return true, the driver should try other non sendpage method (e.g. sock_no_sendpage()) to handle the page.
